I'm sure that a waiter or a cook doesn't need a degree. Perhaps in order to get into a good restaurant, you need experience and recommendations, but not a degree. Of course, in order to learn this matter in perfection, one must practice a lot, not forgetting the theory. When I started working as a waiter, I was still at university and various homework answers I found on online resources to manage with all my tasks. At first, it was difficult, but later with the experience, it was given easier, so practice and you will succeed.
